  Mark your calendars! This Saturday, April 20th, the @urazerowaste is hosting a "Collection of Hard to Recycle Materials" event at @hoglezoo. This is a great opportunity to recycle items, including ski & snowboard gear, old electronics, batteries and more. You can see a complete list of accepted items in the link in our bio 🔗

  Please put your containers on or behind the inside line of the bike lane if possible. This keeps our bike commuters safe, while allowing waste and recycling operators to efficiently collect your cans. We understand there are some streets (we're looking at you 1300 E) where there isn't much space between the curb and bike lane. If there's no other place to put your curbside containers, please minimize the time they're out to keep the bike lanes as clear as possible throughout the week. Thanks for your cooperation accommodating the multiple uses on our streets!

  It's the same great service as ever, but with brand-new trucks! This past year we were able to replace both our Call 2 Haul dump trucks and design them specially for our needs. The enhanced cab visibility for our operators and shorter turning radius means we can maneuver more efficiently and safely throughout our neighborhoods.
